Yes which is why I use simplex you should too.

Yep!

Fair enough. Would be nice to have a somewhat reliable messaging system attached to my social graph for conversations that I don't really care if they were ever made public

Simplex was great the one time I used it though!

Nostr digital magicians are 🔥gzy

Thanks I've seen it before but this finally pushed me to download it. Pretty slick

I wouldn't use Nostr for direct messaging.

People don't see them.

Messages are easily compromised by an app on either end with too many permissions.

💯

"People don't see them"

Yeah this is my interpretation of direct messages on Nostr kind of just sucking in general. It's disappointing because it is convenient to have a direct message function even if you know it isn't private.

Totally agree they should never be used for any messages that you would care about leaking

I might use it to make the intial contact & then move it to Simplex.
